批評家のレビュー
"Neither simplifies nor trivialises the way the human brain works.... An enlightening, inspirational scientific voyage that highlights the importance of collaboration." (Kirkus)
"[A] comprehensive graphic guide to the workings of the brain.... Chock-full of science facts.... The work overall has the feel of being invited to dinner with a friend’s eccentric genius parents." (Publisher's Weekly)
"A fantastically fun way to learn about the brain, the mind and the lives of two of the world's most brilliant scientists." (Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, professor of psychology at the University of Cambridge and author of Inventing Ourselves)
あらすじ・解説
Bloomsbury presents Two Heads by Uta Frith, Alex Frith, Chris Frith and Daniel Locke, read by Jon Culshaw.
A brilliant journey through the wonders and mysteries of the human brain - from a renowned husband-and-wife team of cognitive neuroscientists.
Professors and husband-and-wife team Uta and Chris Frith have pioneered major studies of brain disorders throughout their nearly 50-year career. In Two Heads, their distinguished careers serve as a prism through which they share the compelling story of the birth of neuroscience and their paradigm-shifting discoveries across areas as wide-ranging as autism and schizophrenia research, and new frontiers of social cognition including diversity, prejudice, confidence, collaboration and empathy.
Working with their son, Alex Frith, and artist Daniel Locke, they examine the way that neuroscientific research is now focused on the fact we are a social species, whose brains have evolved to work cooperatively. What happens when people gather in groups? How do people behave when they’re in pairs - either pitted against each other or working together? Is it better to surround yourself with people who are similar to yourself, or different? And, are two heads really better than one?
Highly original, Two Heads provides an expansive understanding of how our brains work, and how they work together.
